Setting the NT Service Error Control Level

To set the NT service error control level:

  1. Select NT Services from the checklist. The NT Services View opens.

  2. Double-click the current Error Control value in the properties grid to access the pop-up menu. The possible values are as follows:

    ValueDescription
    Ignore ErrorLogs the error and continues with service startup.
    Normal ErrorLogs the error, displays an error message, and continues with service startup.
    Critical ErrorLogs the error (if possible) and restarts the system with the last configuration known to be good. If the last-known-good configuration is the one that caused the error, fail the startup.
